That the design of the rotors should be nearly the same is obvious. But where comes the increase of 10% from ? Any ideas?
It may be the center piece itself is thicker or the steel type of the disc has changed (more dense steel type).

Compared to the Elise version the bell is shaped differently on the speedster version because the hubs on the speedster are bigger to allow the 5x110 fitment.

This means that the 'bell' is a lot thicker/rounded around the edges to still get enough strength in the material.

You can see the difference in the bell design if you look at Maik's photo and the ones on the Eliseparts site.

Finding out if the steel type used by Geary is different on these new ones is more difficult.. Guess only he can say..

Bye, Arno.

For the weighing of the rotors I've used a callibrated industry scale that is used at the company I work for at the transport dep. for sending packages. It should be accurate. Dunno much about the Elise rotors, are the main dimensions identical? :roll:

I'm sure if there is a difference it should be in the steel part. My alubell rotors came slightly damaged by transport. Geary offered to repair them, so I removed the steel disc to save transport costs. The bell itself doesn't weigh the half kg difference mentioned in one of the posts above! :shock:
